Features include:* Ruby syntax highlighting* Code folding* Object browser* File browser* Code snippets (though very primitive compared to TextMate)* Code completion* Autocomplete HTML / XML tags (It does not auto-close quotes, brackets, etc, which is upsetting)* Plugins* Find in files* Git / Svn commits* Built-in terminal window* "Scribble" window that allows you to paste stuff that you want to access later without creating a new "junk" file.* Right click on a method call and jump directly to the definition. (By default, it will only work if the definition is in an open file. But, if you install the "Geany Project" plugin, it will jump you to any file in the project with that definition.)

Hi Mully you've said that this is compatible on a Mac, however I have had a look at there website and cant see anything about it being compatible, nor does it any form of installation instructions for Mac use.

Wow, I just checked our Rored and it's pretty bad ass. Typical IDE stuff, but designed for rails from the ground up. It will group all opened files under the respective resource. It has code completion, and some cool navigation features. For example I can be in the controller and click "Open All Views" or "Open Related". All that and it looks nice too. Give it a try.

Killer Features (this just off the top of my head):- killer Autosense for rails, including auto completion using your own classes/controllers, models- Super sick subversion integration, can do commits and diffs etc from right there in the IDE- Quick search: can search for files and folders or even help files(insert mind blowing here) so you don't have to go mousing through directories to find your files- Javascript framework autocompletion: Jquery, prototype, you name it- Run rake tasks, migrations, generators right there in the ide ... awesome- IRB console for quick testing and to run script/console- Mongrel output window, so you can see queries as they are executed - DB manager, so you can see and manage your dbs right from the IDE without having to fire up HeidiSql (which is badass btw) - Great IDE themes ... check out the Aloha theme to get that Textmate look (use Lucida Console font on windows for the best effect)- Constantly being updated and improved.- Built in debugger (sick)- Included Glassfish server which runs Ruby apps using Jruby, if you don't want to be bothered with Mongrel et al- Can update Gems and plugins, filter to see whats installed, what needs updating from right there in the IDE

+1 for netbeansOK.I have said in this thread that RadRails rocks.I have tried Rubymine, textmate, VIM and many of the others but I have just started with netbeans and it TOTALLY blows all the other out of the water.

It's free so try it you'll just never look back.

What you want and what you need are too often not the same thing!When your head is hurting from trying to solve a problem, stop standing on it. When you are the right way up you will see the problem differently and you just might find the solution.(Quote by me 15th July 2009)

Windows: E-TextEditor. Works pretty well, but have had some issues with the macros lately Linux: Gedit, but currently looking for something better. While it has some nice things about it, theres other small bits that annoy me.

Re: Pimp your editor

^ if you havent already, post a more detailed description of your problem in the proper section.

dweebazoid, I do have the gmate plugins installed, and it is pretty nice. Sometimes the way it closes quotes, and doesnt really close brackets (which would be nice, but not a huge deal). I think I may have ran into one or two issues with it auto indenting on me when I didnt want to. I honestly cannot think of anything specific off the top of my head.

Re: Pimp your editor

*EDIT*Spent some time with Textshell and it worked well for me. However there are some bugs that need to be worked out and it seems, unfortunately, that the creator has lost interest in his project. It's too bad as this seems to have potential to be a great Windows editor. I need a Mac.

Re: Pimp your editor

Well, since everyone is showing their love to their favorite editors, I'll say it too...

For Mac, TextMate all the way. For Linux, gedit with installed snippets. For Windows e-Text Editor.

I just don't care for NetBeans. Used version 6 the last time, and I just don't like the interface. I never used it for Rails, just Java SE coding mostly, but I ended up going back to Eclipse for that...
